Very well optioned Hornet in very good shape. Has a clock in the dashboard, gauge cluster under the dash, A/C, cruise control, factory AM/FM radio.  Take a look!

This auction just ended a few minutes ago.  The high bid was $9600 but the reserve was not met.  Lots of action at the end, I believe the bid was about $3700 an hour before it ended.

They still had the junk & Mustangs, I just didn't take pics. of them (except that ONE Mustang). Anything after a II ('78? '79?) just doesn't really do anything for me. They just don't "look" like a Mustang! Any fm products were accidental. I TRY to get an angle where I DON'T have to include them! It would've a tough call for me, the Mustang or the Galaxie first. Would DEFINITELY have to include the Park Lane in my top 3!

Thanks for the pictures!  Your Eagle is looking great.  Nice variety of Mopars.  Great to see a show not overrun with 57 Chevys, Camaros and Mustangs lol.  My favorites beside your Eagle were the Galaxie and the Mercury!

Made it to another car show today SPONSORED BY St. Louse NoPar Club, EVERYBODY/THING welcome. Did see some purty stuff AND I WASN'T the ONLY AMC! My friend Paul from the local AMC Club "Gateway AMC" was there w/his Ambo. & there was a Jeep (back when they were still AMC) Scrambler. Album below if y'all wanna see.

Under the Hood & HVAC / 1980 Eagle vapor canister
« Last post by rustywheel6 on September 24, 2023, 12:25:07 PM »
Hello-

I'm not new to cars, but definitely new to AMC & 4x4.  Most of my experience is with 60's-era Fords, and all this vacuum stuff is new territory.

I've somehow lucked into a 1980 Eagle that is in good shape. 
It appears that the engine was rebuilt and the block was replaced with a 4.0, but the builder reinstalled the 258 head.
i'll take care of that at some point in the future.  at the moment, just trying to get it running again.

But - he "re-imagined" the fuel system...electric fuel pump running to a cheap Mr Gasket fuel regulator, all the return line and vapor stuff is just sitting unhooked.
I think i've figured out which line is which (large hard line is return, small hard line is tank vent.)  Now what to do...
Has anyone had luck installing a generic/universal charcoal canister?


thanks-
